Debatable. The fact that power scales so ridiculously i cant help but think how unrealistic it would be. One of the reasons why digimon is a mess in that aspect.

Pokemon is less on story but more on the unique and interesting pokemon. Overall more on the immersion. Pokemon battle system is simple yet strategic. Thats why competitive play exists. Pokemon themselves acknowledge this and have created their own meta game with vgc otherwise known as worlds. They hold big tornaments every year.

Really its simply opinions. Con of one person is a pro for another
